Are your banks trying at all to help?

Curious to hear if you know or get the sense that your firms are at least trying to fix the headcount situation? Seems like they hired light or normal for this upcoming summer and from what I understand attrition is up. Leads me to believe the cycle is either going to continue or get worse with another virtual class. I think it would be a good move from a morale perspective for all to come out from the beginning with the 100% (or close) intern return offer thing that some banks did last year.

I'm an incoming summer associate and really hoping things get better for you guys. Most schools that I know of had pretty low offer rates this year. I guess they don't care at all, but seems like they should have brought in some more bodies. Really not great what is going on right now from everyone I speak with across basically every bank. How much of this is them not being aware vs not caring? By not aware I mean firms who aren't expecting an exodus - I think some analysts are yet to receive their bonus until summer.
